I don't know why 2015-12-03T16:10:42 <kbsingh> hhorak: they were added to the configs last night, but the job didnt run through cleanly. 2015-12-03T16:10:47 <jbrooks> Maybe not fitting the SKU vision or something? 2015-12-03T16:10:49 <kbsingh> hhorak: i will get them out tomorrow 2015-12-03T16:10:55 <dustymabe> might be worth asking - if there is a good enough reason then that might be a good reason we shouldn't do it 2015-12-03T16:11:11 <jbrooks> OK 2015-12-03T16:11:26 <jbrooks> #action jbrooks to poke around about upstream cockpit-docker exclusion 2015-12-03T16:12:13 <jbrooks> Anything else on this topic? 2015-12-03T16:12:36 <hhorak> kbsingh: ok, thx..

But, for us it would mean jumping on coreos-cloudinit and contributing to it so that we can use it 2015-12-03T16:27:56 <jbrooks> tmrts, does it fit w/ what you've been doing? 2015-12-03T16:28:01 <tmrts> #info copr repository https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/tamertas/flamingo/ 2015-12-03T16:28:07 <jbrooks> thx 2015-12-03T16:28:36 <tmrts> jbrooks, do you mean getting in touch with fedora folks? 2015-12-03T16:28:39 <dustymabe> tmrts: nice so you have reached out to them? 2015-12-03T16:28:45 <dustymabe> them == coreos 2015-12-03T16:28:49 <jbrooks> tmrts, the coreos effort 2015-12-03T16:29:01 <jbrooks> Like, does merging efforts make sense to you? 2015-12-03T16:29:12 <tmrts> dustymabe, they've reached out to me 2015-12-03T16:29:19 <dustymabe> oh, even better 2015-12-03T16:29:32 <lalatenduM> cool 2015-12-03T16:30:11 <tmrts> I evaluated coreos-cloudinit and basically they hardwired it to coreos (some parts). ultimately a joint effort would be better 2015-12-03T16:30:42 <tmrts> But, we'd need to contribute to coreos-cloudinit and make it work for us 2015-12-03T16:31:10 *** sshnaidm <sshnaidm!sshnaidm@nat/redhat/x-yzjqlttdrtvsnbca> has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) 2015-12-03T16:31:13 <dustymabe> tmrts: right. so what I would say is that it's going to be hard to convince them to abandon what they have. what I would propose is that we actually evaluate what they have, remove the hardwired parts, but still allow them to achieve their goals with those hardwirings 2015-12-03T16:31:18 *** jstribny <jstribny!jstribny@nat/redhat/x-cmyzhkpgavztclxi> has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) 2015-12-03T16:31:32 <dustymabe> and then we can together launch a new project together with them 2015-12-03T16:31:39 *** rssfed23 <rssfed23!~rssfed23(a)91.217.86.20> has quit IRC (Quit: My Mac has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…) 2015-12-03T16:31:43 <dustymabe> under some different branding 2015-12-03T16:31:44 <tmrts> dustymabe, absolutely it makes no sense for them to abandon it 2015-12-03T16:32:21 <dustymabe> honestly if we get centos and coreos on-board many others will follow suit 2015-12-03T16:32:24 <dustymabe> IMHO 2015-12-03T16:32:40 <dustymabe> because many people (myself included) view cloud-init from ubuntu as dead 2015-12-03T16:33:17 <dustymabe> thoughts from anyone else on this? 2015-12-03T16:33:24 <jbrooks> Agreed, though we really need to get fedora into the loop -- that's where centos ultimately comes from. For the rebuild, certainly, and we've been envisioning the four-week in that way, as well 2015-12-03T16:34:10 <jbrooks> Do we have a next action on this? 2015-12-03T16:34:12 <dustymabe> jbrooks: agree 2015-12-03T16:34:23 <dustymabe> probably would be better to do it in fedora first 2015-12-03T16:34:48 <dustymabe> tmrts: are you interested in combining efforts with coreos or are you more interested in flamingo as it exists today? 2015-12-03T16:35:09 <dustymabe> you never know. they might even be willing to keep the flamingo name for the launch of the combined effort 2015-12-03T16:35:20 <dustymabe> but most likely would want to have the new project be based largely on their code 2015-12-03T16:35:28 <dustymabe> makes sense since it is already being used and testeed 2015-12-03T16:36:00 <tmrts> dustymabe, Here's my viewpoint a collaboration would be very helpful, but as it stands it would mean splitting flamingo into parts and contribute it to coreos-cloudinit 2015-12-03T16:36:31 *** foxhunt72 is now known as foxhunt_away 2015-12-03T16:36:39 <dustymabe> right 2015-12-03T16:37:02 <dustymabe> which I think probably makes the most sense, because it is already in production and being used 2015-12-03T16:37:25 <kbsingh> i need to rebase away to another thing, thanks fuys 2015-12-03T16:37:26 <kbsingh> guys even 2015-12-03T16:37:28 <dustymabe> if it was the other way around where flamingo was out there and had users and coreos didn't then probably would go the other way 2015-12-03T16:37:47 <dustymabe> tmrts: any chance you will be at fosdem? 2015-12-03T16:38:19 <tmrts> dustymabe, yeah I agree with you it is battle-tested 2015-12-03T16:38:34 <tmrts> dustymabe, unfortunately I won't be able to attend 2015-12-03T16:38:53 <dustymabe> maybe the architecture needs rework (to match your design better), but most of the code will probably come from coreos-cloudinit 2015-12-03T16:38:58 <dustymabe> which is actually probably a good thing for us 2015-12-03T16:39:16 <dustymabe> since they probably support way more functionality at this point (not sure on this, just guessing) 2015-12-03T16:39:55 <dustymabe> tmrts: so I guess what I am asking is "is the proposal I made acceptable to you?" 2015-12-03T16:40:00 <dustymabe> since you wrote flamingo 2015-12-03T16:41:04 <tmrts> dustymabe, the most acceptable choice would be to create a new organization(or effort) and merge what they have with flamingo along with them 2015-12-03T16:41:27 <dustymabe> right. and what I am proposing is that we do that 2015-12-03T16:41:47 <tmrts> dustymabe, yes I agree with you 2015-12-03T16:41:52 <dustymabe> where the new org has probably most of the new code coming from coreos-cloud-init and some of it coming from flamingo 2015-12-03T16:42:24 <dustymabe> either way we want to merge our efforts 2015-12-03T16:42:33 <dustymabe> some of the coreos devs live in NYC 2015-12-03T16:42:39 <dustymabe> and I see them often at meetups 2015-12-03T16:44:07 *** centbot <centbot!~centbot@centos/bot/centbot> has joined #centos-devel 2015-12-03T16:44:08 <dustymabe> and how long ago was that? 2015-12-03T16:44:41 *** Bahhumbug <Bahhumbug!jrd@serentos/admin/jrd> has joined #centos-devel 2015-12-03T16:44:44 <tmrts> I replied that we'd like to merge efforts as well and what do you think the next action should be 2015-12-03T16:45:06 <Bahhumbug> My apologies for dropping the bot in the middle of your meeting. I don't believe meetbot will be able to recover gracefully from this action. 2015-12-03T16:45:15 <tmrts> this was a week ago and he said that we should start by contributing to coreos-ci 2015-12-03T16:45:34 <dustymabe> tmrts: ok cool 2015-12-03T16:46:05 <dustymabe> basically what we need to do is float the idea of the combined organization with them 2015-12-03T16:46:34 <dustymabe> and as long as they understand that is our goal and they agree it is their goal too then I don't see any problem with contributing code to their GH for now 2015-12-03T16:46:40 <Bahhumbug> If anyone needs raw bot logs from the meeting (sans the ~2 minutes it was down, obviously) please ping me and I will be happy to provide them. 2015-12-03T16:46:46 <dustymabe> to ease the migration to the new org 2015-12-03T16:47:06 <tmrts> I'll mention that we'd be more comfortable with a combined organization and help with the migration 2015-12-03T16:47:16 <dustymabe> Bahhumbug: jbrooks will probably need them to post to the list 2015-12-03T16:47:19 *** paragan <paragan!~paragan@unaffiliated/paragan> has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) 2015-12-03T16:47:27 <dustymabe> tmrts: feel free to add me to the emails 2015-12-03T16:47:41 <tmrts> yeah I'll cc you 2015-12-03T16:47:56 <dustymabe> thanks 2015-12-03T16:47:56 <Bahhumbug> Ping me at the end of your meeting and I'll make them available.

Thanks for CentOS 7 ppc64!
by Bryson Lee 17 Feb '16

17 Feb '16

Just a quick note to thank all involved in the ppc64 AltArch effort! Was able to get one of our IBM 812L’s up and running very quickly after importing the Everything ISO into our Cobbler environment. Next I’ll try rebuilding some of the packages that we need for 32-bit ppc… Thanks again for all the great work!

Why is systemd user instance support disabled in CentOS 7 / RHEL 7?
by Tadej Janež 28 Jan '16

28 Jan '16

Hi! I'm preparing a backup package for Fedora/EPEL 7 [1] that provides a web server with a systemd unit file for running with the systemd user instance (i.e. 'systemd --user'). As reported in [2], systemd user instance support is disabled in CentOS 7 due to being disabled in the upstream RHEL package. It is the same with the latest systemd for CentOS 7 [3]. Unfortunately, the original Red Hat Bugzilla report [4] is not public so I'm asking here if anyone has more information why this is disabled? Thanks and regards, Tadej [1] https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/bup [2] https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=8767 [3] https://git.centos.org/blob/rpms! systemd/1ff63606a64d814f37c4956854107e049a684754/SOURCES! 0004-remove-user-.service.patch [4] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1019738

Make Atomic Host Downloads more Visible
by Brian (bex) Exelbierd 04 Jan '16

04 Jan '16

I believe we should list the Atomic Host downloads more clearly on these pages: https://wiki.centos.org/Download https://www.centos.org/download/ I can make the edits if given permission or I am happy to just see them done. regards, bex

Greater Visibility for Events
by Brian (bex) Exelbierd 29 Dec '15

29 Dec '15

I believe we should add a link in the Community NavBar on centos.org for https://wiki.centos.org/Events I also believe we should either add confirmed events to the meeting calendar or produce a separate calendar of events CentOS will be represented at. I can do the updates or am happy to let someone else make the changes. regards, bex

Hi All: In the CentOS community for Power, we have get the iso and rpms for ppc64le, but the rpms related to openstack do not be released for ppc64le, we have a pressing need for them. We wish CentOS community to release it for Power. We are testing openstack on Power using the noarch rpms whitch are provided in x86_64, if credible ? Thanks! 2015-12-22 liu_xbing

22 Dec '15

Hello, On vault for 7.2.1511 I only find libssh2 source when a couple of packages require libssh. This package is available in 7.1.1503. Shouldn't we have it in 7.2.1511 list as well ? - example of package requiring it is cockpit Thanks for your check. -- Thierry

CentOS 7 ppc64le (power little endian) rpms, build logs, mock configs
by James O'Connor 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Here are the first two rounds of CentOS 7 ppc64le rpms, build logs, and mock configs: Round A: http://ppcbootstrap.lon1.centos.org/C7a/ppc64le/ * Built atop Fedora 21 ppc64le VMs * Built from http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/os/Source/SPackages/ and c7-ppc64le branch on git.centos.org * Source rpms were temporarily modified to remove circular dependencies during the bootstrap process Round B: http://ppcbootstrap.lon1.centos.org/C7b/ppc64le/ * Built atop Centos 7 ppc64le VMs * Built from http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/os/Source/SPackages/ , http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/updates/Source/SPackages/ , and c7-ppc64le branch on git.centos.org * noarch rpms were skipped as those will be taken from c7-x86_64 * Only gcc.spec (%global build_ada 0), curl.spec (upstream testcase fix), ghostscript.spec (upstream segfault fix) and nss.spec (upstream fix for expired PayPal cert) were modified. I will provide further details on these alterations on the altarch ppc64le wiki page once that gets created. Feedback is most welcome. You may find jpoc on the #centos-devel and #centos-ppc irc channels. Once the AltArch SIG is officially approved, we will share installable alpha/beta images and rpm repositories. Thanks -James
